"The process from start to finish went exceedingly well! The online quote system was easy and efficient to use also. We decided to completely start from scratch by removing all of the overgrown shrubbery and the overgrown wax myrtle tree from our front yard. Eric, the business owner, was very responsive and quick to reply to emails and text messages. He was able to get me a quote very quickly via the online quote app they use. I accepted it and we set up a date to have the work done. Marvin's crew showed up right on time and got right to work. The entire job was completely finished in less than 4 hours, which included a thorough cleanup of all small branches and leaves. They loaded all of the ripped out vegetation onto a trailer and took it to the dump. I was very impressed with Eric and Marvin's crew's professionalism and thoroughness. I will definitely use Cornerstone again and also recommend them to others. I've included before and after photos."

"Kerrin is a delight to work with!  Her design for my landscaping and driveway were spot on with what I had in mind for my house.  She really listened to what I wanted and what I had in the budget to  spend on this.  She installed a driveway and sidewalk with pavers and stone, as well as columns at the foot of my driveway with lights on them.  She installed lighting along my driveway and in the gardens in the front and back yards. There is so much work that they did, I can't list it all.
I had huge overgrown azaleas along the front of my house.  Her crew transplanted them in my backyard as a screen and along my property line.  The new gardens along the front of my house look great!  They really complement the style of my house and yard.
 Her crew worked tirelessly to get the job done. The work was performed in a professional manner and without cutting corners.  Everything looks so nice and I am really happy with the final product! 
I will definitely use her again in the future!  I could go on and on about how pleased I am with the final outcome!!
I highly recommend  Kerrin and Natchez Landscape!

"I cannot sing praises enough. I have finally found a company that does what it promises when it promises. I already have plans to hire them again. I had damaged concrete decking that had to be broken out and repoured. No damage to any surrounding areas. Work was done timely and professionally. Additional wood reworking done seamlessly"

"We hired Fresh Cut for weekly lawn maintenance throughout the 2014 spring and summer growing season and were completely satisfied! They are professional and reliable and the workers are friendly. We have seen their work in other yards in our neighborhood as well, with grass as well as flowerbeds, and they do a beautiful job. They price fairly. We will use their services again!"

Retaining Wall Installers FAQs, answered by experts

To maintain the integrity of your landscape, a retaining wall must be installed if the slope of the angle exceeds 35 degrees. The lean of the wall must be 1 inch per 12 inches in height to disperse the weight of the soil uniformly and guarantee the correct drainage of the soil.

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.

Most railroad tie retaining walls have a life span of 20 to 30 years, though you may need to replace your wall sooner if it’s repeatedly exposed to heavy rain, runoff, and excess moisture. Railroad ties are typically treated with creosote, which makes them much more durable than untreated wood. Though they last longer, they don’t last forever. For the most longevity, make sure your retaining wall has a sturdy base and steel reinforcements. You should also install drainage to direct water away from the wall.

If you don’t backfill a retaining wall—either at all or adequately enough—the wall won’t drain well, and water will be able to pass through it. Poor drainage will lead to a warped wall or a buildup of hydrostatic pressure, which can eventually collapse your retaining wall. If you have particularly sloped land, consult a structural engineer to ensure your hardscaping is adding value to your home.
